Distance covered: 4km
Time: 26:18 minutes
Pace: 6'56
On my run today, I didn't really have anything I was specifically focussing on. I just wanted to see what my motivation was like if I didn't have a running or pace goal like all of my other runs. I found that this run was quite enjoyable because of the fact that I had nothing to focus on. I like this type of run because I am able to run for any distance at a pace that did not matter. This really increased my motivation to run and is making me look forward to my next run.
While I was running I found that I got quite tired at the beginning but once I had already run 1 or 2 km I was getting more energy because I was getting used to the pace that I was running at. Today the temperature was a little bit warmer than it has been the past few days which made it easier to run because I find it quite challenging to run in cold weather because it is harder to breath. I have also been running with my mum for quite a few of these runs and I have found that this also helps to improve my motivation because I challenge myself to run further when I am with her so we run the same distance.
